2025 Ford F-150 vs 2025 Ram 1500: Built for Carman, Ready for Everything
In Carman, MB, trucks have to be ready for it all. Gravel roads, winter mornings, muddy job sites, and long drives to Winnipeg are all part of the picture. The 2025 Ford F-150 and the 2025 Ram 1500 both offer tough builds and modern features. Still, when you compare them side by side, the F-150 stands out for its strength, flexibility, and real-world comfort. Let’s break it down and see why more drivers are choosing Carman Ford for a truck that truly works.
Strong Power and Real Efficiency
The 2025 Ford F-150 comes with a wide range of engine options. From the 2.7 litre EcoBoost to the strong 5.0 litre V8 and the 3.5 litre PowerBoost Hybrid, it’s built to suit different needs. In contrast, the 2025 Ram 1500 features a 3.0 litre Hurricane inline six engine in most trims, producing up to 420 horsepower and 469 lb-ft of torque. The F-150 hybrid option delivers 430 horsepower and 570 lb-ft of torque. When properly equipped, it can tow up to 13,500 lbs and carry a payload of up to 2,455 lbs. Fuel economy with the hybrid stays close to 9.8 L/100 km combined. The top trims of Ram 1500 get up to 540 horsepower and 521 lb-ft, and the towing tops out at 11,580 lbs with a payload of up to 2,300 lbs. Fuel numbers for the Hurricane engine are still under review. When it comes to power, payload, and fuel use, the F-150 gives you more variety and higher numbers.
Cargo Room That Works With You
The 2025 Ford F-150 offers generous space inside the cab, seating up to five adults with ease. Its rear seats fold completely flat, opening up to 3,315 litres of cargo space. Whether you're carrying gear, groceries, or work equipment, that flat load floor makes every bit of space useful. On the other hand, the Ram 1500 also seats five and brings comfort to the back seat, but its under seat storage and seat folding design feel more limited in daily use. Seat material options in both trucks include durable cloth and premium leather, but the F-150’s layout offers more flexibility.
Everyday Comfort and Smart Tech
Inside the 2025 F-150, you get an available 12 inch touchscreen powered by SYNC 4 with wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and voice recognition. A wireless charger, heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, and a heated steering wheel are available across multiple trims. The Ram 1500 also includes a modern touchscreen and Uconnect 5 system, with wireless features and a larger screen available on higher trims. It also offers luxury options like a 23 speaker McIntosh sound system in top models, while the F-150 provides up to 18 speakers from B and O. Keyless entry, remote start, fog lights, and power adjustable pedals are found in both, yet more of these features come standard or at lower trim levels in the F-150.
Confidence on the Road
Ford Co-Pilot360 is included on most 2025 F-150 trims and comes with Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Keeping System, a Rear View Camera with Dynamic Hitch Assist, and optional features like Blind Spot Monitoring with Trailer Coverage and Intersection Assist. The 2025 Ram 1500 also includes strong safety systems, like Pedestrian Emergency Braking and Lane Assist, but many advanced features require higher trims or packages. With Manitoba’s snowy roads and busy highways, having more standard coverage in your truck makes a real difference.
Come See It for Yourself
Both trucks offer power and comfort. Still, the 2025 Ford F-150 goes further by offering more engine options, better towing, smarter storage, and wider access to features across trims. It’s ready for long winters, heavy hauls, and everything else that comes with life in Carman, MB. Visit Carman Ford today to test drive the F-150 and explore the trim that fits your everyday needs.
